What Causes Pain In Mouth With Redness And Intermittent Fever?
My 4 yr old son complains of pain in his mouth, the dentist found nothing wrong. It got worse, lots of redness, he has an off and on fever and does not want to eat or drink. One doctor thinks it might be herpes and prescribed Acyclovir. I just wanted a second opinion, thanks so much.
